TABLE OF CONTENTS OPERATION OVERVIEW .....................................................................................5 LED DEFINITION ..................................................................................................5 3-WAY SWITCH ON THE BACK PANEL .............................................................6 GUI FUNCTIONS ..................................................................................................7 TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS ............................................
Power LED Wireless Speed LED WPS LED Their behaviors are: Power LED: - flashing green(quick, 0.2 sec) - flashing green(slow, 0.8 sec) > unit ready, but no STA associated for AP, or STA not associated with AP - Solid green: AP and STA associated. > unit booting with normal firmware Wireless Speed LED: AP: - Solid green: At least 1 client is associated with the AP - OFF if AP has no STA associated with it.
In Auto mode, it will set itself dynamically to AP or Station mode, depending on if it’s wired to a DHCP server/Router. If set to “Access Point” or “Station”, the unit will only run always as AP or STA mode then. GUI Functions “Setup Wizard” On AP side, it includes two functions: Method to add a new wireless client (either WPS, or manually), and method to set AP’s wireless settings.
Basic Wireless Settings This page allows the user to set the following parameters: SSID: By default, it’s “WNHD3004” Region: USA is the region selected, user can’t change it. Channel: By default, it’s “100”. Mode: By default, it’s “Up to 145Mbps” (20MHz channel is required by WiFi alliance by default), the other modes are “Up to 54Mbps” (11a), and “Up to 300Mbps”(40MHz channel) Security: By default, WPA/WPA2-PSK mixed mode is enabled. Default passphrase is a device Serial Number. © 2010 by NETGEAR, Inc.
On the Bridge/STA side, the GUI looks very similar, except there is no channel selection but only “Auto”, it will scan all channels and associate with AP on the channel the AP is running. Network Settings By default, the devices will run in “DHCP” mode, which means they will get DHCP IPs from the router. © 2010 by NETGEAR, Inc. All rights reserved.
You can change the default type to “Static” IP, by default, AP has default IP 192.168.1.240, and Bridge/STA has default IP 192.168.1.241, you can change the default IPs through this page (a factory default reset will reset them back to .240 and .241). MAC Address Filtering This function is only available on Access Point side, by default, it’s disabled. If enabled, it allows to filter out wireless clients if not on the allowed MAC list, for tightened security. © 2010 by NETGEAR, Inc. All rights reserved.
Advanced Wireless Settings This page has the following options - Enable SSID Broadcast - Enable WMM - WPS PIN: AP or STA’s WPS PIN, that can be used by other wireless client or AP that support WPS PIN. - “Keep Existing Wireless Settings”: By default, this is enabled, that means the AP when running WPS, will simply use existing SSID and WPA/WPA2 Passphrase, without generating random SSID and Passphrase. If this is unchecked, AP will generate random SSID and 64-hex-digit Passphrase.
Bridge/STA side also has Advanced Wireless Settings page, it just does not have the 3 functions relevant to AP: - No “SSID Broadcast” option - No “Keep existing settings” option - No “Wireless Access List”, instead, it adds a link to “Setup Wireless Wizard” © 2010 by NETGEAR, Inc. All rights reserved.
“Admin” page User can change web GUI login password (username “admin” is not changeable), and the login session time-out value (By default, it’s 5 minutes, meaning the GUI will auto log out the session if idle for 5 minutes) The device name is used to show up in Vista/Win7 network map. © 2010 by NETGEAR, Inc. All rights reserved.
“Time” page By default, the time zone is set to GMT+1, and uses NTP servers (NETGEAR servers) © 2010 by NETGEAR, Inc. All rights reserved.
“System” page In this page, user can save the configuration of the device, restore the configuration from a previously-saved file, reset device to factory default (Default to “Auto” mode, default to DHCP mode, default to default IPs, etc), or reboot the device. © 2010 by NETGEAR, Inc. All rights reserved.
“Firmware” page In this page, user can find out the firmware version, released date, and can manually upload a downloaded firmware, or to auto-check if there is any newer firmware available. When click “Check”, the device connects to NETGEAR server to see if there is a newer firmware. © 2010 by NETGEAR, Inc. All rights reserved.
“Device Info” page This page lists the following information: - System Up time - Firmware information - IP information: Default IP, or the DHCP IP got from router - Wireless LAN: On AP side, it lists the wireless settings the AP is running. On STA side, it will list whether it’s associated with any AP, if so, which AP, which channel, which mode. “Wireless” page in Status category On the AP side, this page lists the information of each client associated with this AP. © 2010 by NETGEAR, Inc.
On the Bridge/Station side, this page lists the Access Points the Bridge/Station can see/scan. “Logs” page In the “Logs” page, user can find entries for events like NTP server contact, wireless client association/dissociation, etc. “Statistics” page User can check the amount of packets sent by the device’s Ethernet interface or wireless interface. The “Errors”, “Dropped”, “Conflicts” number will be hintful if seeing connection issues. © 2010 by NETGEAR, Inc. All rights reserved.

Troubleshooting Tips Q: STAs get the default IP 192.168.1.241. What in case of more than 1 STA? A: In case of more than 1 STA, all STAs will have default 192.168.1.241. If the AP is connected to a router, all STAs will get DHCP IPs from the router therefore there will be no IP conflict. The IP conflict only affects your access to the STA GUI, it does not impact traffic from devices behind the STAs, as they are just bridges.
